I am really sad about it too. The guy that owns them isn't the most together/business kind of guy. I know they had posted in Facebook that they were trying to find ways to stay open, so any sales will probably help!

I'm not on Facebook, so I didn't know! I've gone from an early adopter to a cranky pants!

It looks like the shop was closed down yesterday - about an hour after I was there - due to a permit issue. To sum up: it's not a food safety issue, they had a mobile food cart license and not a commissary kitchen license. :(

They had just made up some huge batches, too! Not sure if they will still be at farmers markets past this weekend, but they are planning a free sorbet soirée on March 8th, location TBA. There will likely be pistachio.

I will be forever grateful for this post!!! Just bought 4 cartons myself. I had no idea where to find scream other than farmers' markets!!

Lucky duck! Everywhere here that had them doesn't anymore, or perhaps they have already sold out right under my checking and rechecking nose. I do hope they can at least come back to the farmers markets!

Whoa hey, here's what they say on their Facebook page:

Hello Scream fans! Sorry for the long silence. We’ve been busy restructuring and hope to have lots to share soon. Unfortunately our store on Telegraph will not be reopening, but we plan to partner with someone else in Oakland so you can find our delicious sorbet again this summer.

I am always updating this thread, and yet there is no Scream Sorbet in my belly!

This may change tomorrow! It can change for you, too, if you're in the East Bay!

For all of you who have been mourning the closure of Scream, come and get it at our University store tomorrow ...a little pop up for them to fundraise so that they can keep making their amazing "scream"! We'll be open 9-3 on University and 8-7 (i think) in Rockridge.

The University location is 1952 University in Berkeley. Not posted on their website (?) but it is on their Facebook.
